How to Make Asparagus Lemon Soup

1. Trim the asparagus and chop the celery and onion. Mince the garlic.
2. In a large pot, combine the asparagus, celery, onion, and garlic with the chicken broth. Bring to a boil over high heat.
3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until asparagus is tender.
4. Let the soup cool slightly before carefully transferring it to a blender (or using an immersion blender). Blend until completely smooth.
5. Return the soup to the pot (if serving hot). Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, heavy cream/coconut milk, salt, and pepper.
6. If serving hot, heat gently over low heat until warmed through. Do not boil.
7. If serving cold, transfer the soup to a serving bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
8. Garnish with fresh dill or chives before serving. Serve with warm crusty bread rolls.
